amiibos!: or How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Give Nintendo My Money

I look forward to the eventual Banjo-Kazooie amiibo (which reminds me, I need to find a K.Rool amiibio).

Aw, that LA amiibo looks adorable. I keep wondering if I should find a BOTW Link or Zelda, then I look and see the price and am like NOPE.

Oh man, didn't consider the fact there would be a Banjo Amiibo coming out.

I haven't bought any for a while (I recently boxed up all my Smash ones and just have my Zelda ones on display), but I might just pick that one up.

Man, it's probably going to be utter heck to get a Banjo amiibo. You just know it's going to be the most unicorn-y of unicorn amiibos.

It'd be cool if all four of the Heroes got unique amiibos. I think I'd prefer getting either an Eight amiibo or an Erdick amiibo over the default one.

Holy shit they're finally doing a Snake amiibo?

Some guys filed a patent for a new Amiibo thing.

...Is it a Nintendo version of Skylanders minus the Portal of Power since the Joy-Con already has an NFC field?

Banjo & Kazooie, Terry, and Byleth amiibo will be out March 26th.

Jim Sterling's Amiibo orgy is still on my mind. I'm glad there's merchandise but I hope it doesn't effect games too drastically. Otherwise, I'm hoping workable unofficial files exist.

There are programs to turn NFC stickers into "amiibo" that games will recognize.

I like collecting the Smash Bros. set, though. Just missing Piranha Plant, Daisy, Wolf, and the unreleased ones now.

Steve and Alex amiibo have been delayed until later in 2022.

There's a certain irony in that the simplest amiibos designs have been announced to be delayed.

But I wonder if that means Min Min won't be delayed as they just say Steve and Alex. Funny enough, Nintendo's amiibo page won't load.

Steve and Alex Smash amiibo out September 9th.

Why do I get the feeling that the reason we haven't even heard if there's going to be a Sora amiibo is because they're currently hashing out a plan to make amiibos of all of his designs

Disney: "Did someone say $$$?"

Do amiibos even sell that well nowadays?

For a time there were shelves and shelves of them. But now there's only a tiny section for the newly released ones that seem to disappear in between releases.

I blame Lottie. Seriously, it was her or nothing on those shelves for a long time.

By me, the stores have a decent chunk, mostly the Loftwing, Dread, some Monster Hunter ones. Byleth was reissued. Min Min had a good amount but a week after release they were all gone. I think Steve will have alot due to being far more popular and known.

Yeah, the overproduction of Lottie probably started the fall of amiibos. I haven't looked at the amiibo section in a long time, but I remember seeing Ike, Meta Knight, and occasionally the Splatoon amiibos on the shelf.

When they did waves of 3 for Ultimate, you could find a bunch of one, a few of the other and practically none of the third. I saw plenty of Banjo-Kazooie, good amount of Byleth and Terry was nonexistent.

Its strange to hear the Loftwing is in stock, here in Australia its been totally gone ever since shortly after the release of SS HD

It was totally out of stock here for a while too, thanks to all the scalpers and the like that was going on at the time. They only started showing up again after a few months. I grabbed one as soon as I saw it in a Target; I like Zelda, but not enough to justify the the price that the scalpers were trying to jack it up to.

When the Loftwings came out, there was only 2 or 3 of them. Then after a month there's at least a dozen and been that way fir months. I figured the initial lack was because of scalpers.

The Monster Hunter amiibos get zero fanfare from Nintendo. They aren't even listed on the amiibo page.

Splatoon 3 themed Inkling girl, Octoling girl, and Small Fry samlonid announced.

Squid Sisters and Off The Hook 2 packs will be getting restocks.

I was never too crazy about the multi-pack amiibos. What if you just wanted one of them and now have to pay even more?

I was relieved that Cat Mario and Peach were separate. I wanted Cat Mario but I despise Cat Peach.

Splatoon 3's amiibo will be out on November 11th

Kazuya and Sephiroth will be out on January 13th with Pyra and Mythra later in the year.
